Instructions (in French)

Chasser : héritage culturel ou barbarie ? Document 1 : David : On chasse pour de multiples motifs : se nourrir, faire du commerce, réguler les populations animales, protéger des terrains, pratiquer une activité physique, se distraire ou même acquérir du prestige. Document 2 : Melissa : Je n’arrive pas à concevoir qu’on éprouve de la joie à tuer des bêtes. Je ne saisis pas davantage comment on peut se dire amoureux de la nature tout en contribuant activement à sa ruine.
